    Can God's Existence be Proven through Science?

    Well sorry, I just thought that was what you were trying to say, my bad. Sufficient evidence=acceptance Orly? Seems like if you believe that I'm going to be horribly tortured for all eternity if I don't accept Christianity that you'd have to be amazingly evil not to want me to avoid that...

    How about taking Christ OUT of Christmas?

    Allowing people to celebrate it and allowing the government to endorse it are two very different things. But no, I don't have a problem with it being a public holiday, mainly because it's a religious holiday for loads of different religions and has lost all religious meaning. It's a secular...

    Why do Atheists not believe? + OFF-TOPIC GOODNESS

    No problem man, it's good to have some other Atheists on these forums lol. I love Revolver by The Beatles, I have an original album from 1966 on Vinyl (UK edition).

    Can God's Existence be Proven through Science?

    Yes, you're absolutely correct, Science does change as new evidence comes in, how stupid those evil scientists are to change their beliefs when they're proved completely and utterly wrong... Science can't answer that question. Science is completely Secular. Sure, it can show how it happened...

    Why do Atheists not believe? + OFF-TOPIC GOODNESS

    Thanks for the nice Christian words, I'm sure that's exactly what Jesus would say. I reject Christianity, yes, but not venomously lol. I just don't see the evidence, if there was sufficient evidence (I need to buy a tape recorder....) then I'd accept it. Well good for you :) If Christianity...

    READ THIS: Knowledge & Belief - The Differences

    Gnosticism first meant knowing/knowable, and then was applied to Christians who believed that they had divine knowledge unavailable to the Church, not the other way around. It doesn't matter really, one means you make a claim one means you don't, it's as simple as that. You'll notice I never...

    Why do Atheists not believe? + OFF-TOPIC GOODNESS

    Re: geography This means nothing, there is more evidence for fairies than there is against them, having more evidence for than against doesn't instantly qualify it for belief. Care to share with us any of this evidence? What's that I hear? My favorite Christian argument? (Well, not really an...

    READ THIS: Knowledge & Belief - The Differences

    Agnosticism is the view that the truth value of certain claims—especially claims about the existence of any deity, but also other religious and metaphysical claims—is unknown or unknowable. Agnosticism doesn't deal with belief, Atheism/Theism deal with belief (Read the first post)...

    if you don't stop using that big blue font I'm gonna go crazy lol, we can all hear with with a regular font. Well of course I believe in things outside my religious/non-religious view BUT THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MY RELIGIOUS STANCE. Evolution has nothing at all to do with God and...

    READ THIS: Knowledge & Belief - The Differences

    Atheism is and isn't a belief, let me explain. Gnostic Atheism (The belief that there is no God) is a belief, but I'm not in the habit of defending other people's religious views lol. When you come and talk to me I assume you're talking about what I believe (or lack thereof in this case ;) )...

    Why do Atheists not believe? + OFF-TOPIC GOODNESS

    Re: Why do Atheists not believe? No, if there is a supernatural world it has NO EFFECT WHATSOEVER on me (Unless they come into the natural world, at which point they cease to become supernatural and can be studied empirically) If there is a supernatural world and it affects me in any way...

    Why do Atheists not believe? + OFF-TOPIC GOODNESS

    Lol, I've already had to link people to this a good 10 times, and I doubt it'll stop anytime soon No, I don't say there was no creator, there are no moral absolutes, etc, I just reject the claim that there is. I don't believe there is, but I don't claim there isn't lol. Give me some evidence...

    Book Suggestions for a 9 yr old

    Because Narnia is totally a dogma of the Christian faith :lol Here are a few: Harry Potter Series A Series of Unfortunate Events (These are REALLY good at getting her to want to be smart) Twilight Series (Personally I'd rather die than read these, but a kid would probably like them)

    I'll break down what you said part by part, because it was a no-paragraph rant. Yes, but it is not a requirement of being an Atheist to follow them, following the Bible IS a requirement in being a Roman Catholic, therefore it's a doctrine of that belief. Atheism has no dogma because it's not a...

    Why do Atheists not believe? + OFF-TOPIC GOODNESS

    Re: geography Wait for it..... Wait for it.... Neither can you You can't prove that God does them either. What you propose (Atheists having to disprove it) is a pure and simple burden of proof fallacy. The onus is on YOU to prove where they come from, if you can't do that you don't believe...

    READ THIS: Knowledge & Belief - The Differences

    Lol, I suppose this is a fair place to have a debate. The argument you just made is perhaps my favorite in all of theological philosophy, and for so many reasons hehe. Atheism isn't a belief, it's the lack of a belief (or rejection of a belief depending on which terminology you prefer). They...

    Re: Why do Atheists not believe? First of all I know next to nothing about Stargate so I don't really get many of your arguments & analogies. Think you could decode it into English? Thanks lol. Any form of directed panspermia requires no supernatural input, it's entirely possible with only...

    READ THIS: Knowledge & Belief - The Differences

    This is a huge problem on these forums, people haven't grasped the difference between belief and knowledge. This is a thread explaining them both in an easy to understand way, if I see anyone who doesn't understand either term I'll direct them here. Belief This is a good place to start because...

    Re: Why do Atheists not believe? I understood pretty much none of this post lol. Weren't there 5 main humanoid races (Ancients, Asgards, etc)? I don't get it haha. We could be the alien species that creates life on other planets, all we have to do is grab some plants and fly to another...
